Atlas of The Universe
Anyone lucky enough to have stood beneath a truly dark night sky has certainly that experience, that sense of the mysterious. Overhead there arches a seemingly panoply of countless stars, some bright, some dim, some twinkling with their pe colors, the majestic sweep of the Milky Way, the steady lights of planets, and per those with sensitive enough eyesight) even a few faint spots of cloudy nebulosity - all those wonders spread out like small, bright, diamonds swaddled in a dark e of black velvet. Urban dwellers today have, for the most part, lost their once inte touch with that awe as our skies have grown increasingly polluted by the ever pre lighting of our cities. Even more sadly, there is a lost appreciation of the place (thay small and exceedingly fragile place) which humanity holds in a universe which is powe sometimes chaotic and vast beyond comprehension.

It may, in fact, only question which is as big as the universe itself.
